[From Chapters 6 and 7 of my book, The Additions to the Faith] To contemplate Yahweh’s purpose is to seek the mind of Christ and the very heart of the Father.

When It Is Done! Zechariah 14 MSTC(i)1 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, that thou shalt be spoiled and robbed. 2 For I will gather together all the Heathen, to fight against Jerusalem: so that the city shall be won, the houses spoiled, and the women defiled.

Spiritual blindness is the inability or unwillingness to perceive, understand, or accept God’s truth, often caused by sin, hardened hearts, or the influence of “the god of this world” (2 Corinthians 4:4).

The true men of God never taught the “prosperity doctrine.” They never taught that if you give money to the preacher, that God would give you more money back, more than in your wildest dreams. The true apostles and prophets of God taught self-denial. They taught that we should seek the spiritual things of God, and then God would…

Every truth elucidated in the word of God can stand alone for a while like a brilliant gemstone freed from its leather pouch.

Every generation asks, Who is the Son of God? But few ever ask the deeper question: What is the Son of God? Scripture speaks of Him not only as a Person but as a Seed, a Word, a Logos—containing within Himself the entire destiny of God’s purpose. To understand Christ is to understand the mystery of God’s reproduction, the…
